it's a pet peeve of mine when ppl frame Andrew as hating Aaron and being needlessly cruel to him... bc while yes, their relationship is fractured and strained, Andrew genuinely cares about his brother and wants the best for him, he just doesn't know how to show that in a normal way.
like he might not know how to express it in a healthy manner but Andrew LOVES Aaron, like he truly just wants Aaron to be healthy and safe. It's like, his whole Thing. Aaron is one of the most important people in his life. Andrew wants him around. He'd do anything to protect him.
I guarantee Andrew wants to be emotionally close to Aaron too, he just doesn't have the tools to do that and the thought of letting someone in terrifies him. He also has no concept of what a healthy sibling relationship looks like, so he has no frame of reference to work from.

there is something so beautiful in the transition of the gang singing for their seniors, and then singing to their future selves, and then their future selves being the ones to sing to themselves. it’s the perfect story, them not knowing defeat and singing to reassure others, then their past selves, before losing, before feeling that pain, being the ones to reassure them, and then for themselves in that moment, knowing defeat, knowing the pain of losing, having the regret and disappointment, getting the strength to build themselves back up, not bc of someone else, and not bc of unknowing hope, but bc they’d been there, felt it, and lived through it, bc they are strong and accepting and forgiving enough to do it for their present selves. that’s the art of telling a story with image and acting and theming and music and not a single ounce of dialogue right there.

While I do love me a good enemies-to-lovers trope, I think more writers need to realize that arguing isn't chemistry.

I'm going to need snf to run bread and fred back again.
I know sapnap rage quit yesterday 😂 but I need to see them give the game one more chance.
It reminded me of when they play minecraft with one keyboard, one mouse. That was hilarious.

Me: (watching Atlanta) damn this girl Alfred is hanging out with is hot as fuck but I can't put my finger on why.
All reviews of that episode: pretty neat to have a trans woman casually play the role of a plot relevant character in a popular tv show!
Me: Ah.
